Chapter 338 Undercurrent of Chang’an
Li Yin arrived at Tai Chi Palace at noon, and spent the whole afternoon with Li Shimin without eating, until Li Shimin basically learned how to drive this classic car, Li Shimin got out of the car unsatisfied, at this time Tai Chi Palace arrived at Tai Chi The square in front of the hall had long been surrounded by ministers who came to watch the theater. Li Yin’s classic cars had already been wiped clean by these ministers with court clothes without Li Yin’s cleaning.
“Liu Lang hasn’t eaten yet!” Li Shimin had had enough fun, and then remembered that Li Yin hadn’t eaten yet.
Li Yan looked at the sunset in the sky with a wry smile, and was speechless for a moment. Sure enough, he still had to keep a low profile. Now that he had tasted the pain, he bowed and said, “Father, it’s already night!”
Li Shimin glanced at the sun, smiled, and continued: “A few days ago, the father hunted and caught a lot of prey, and now I have the imperial dining room make them for you to taste!”
Changsun Wuji and other ministers have been practicing with Li Shimin here for a long time. Hearing this, they all showed envious expressions. It is not how much these prey eat, it is an honor, these prey are hunted by Li Shimin himself.
“Thank you, father!” Li Yin naturally understood the meaning, so he also bowed down to thank him.
Li Shimin successfully mastered the driving skills, satisfied, and then said: “Liulang, what is the price of this kind of classic car? Father wants to buy a batch from you, what do you think?” Li Shimin’s eyes were cunning. Faced with this problem, Li Yin can’t give in. This classic car is not a bicycle. It’s fine to send a few of them. He doesn’t feel bad, but even with Yizhou’s current industrial capacity, the production of this kind of classic car is very cumbersome. , The cost is naturally very high. After thinking about it, Li Min said: “Father. I drove this classic car to Chang’an and planned to give it to my father. But if my father buys it in bulk, my father will not…”
“Ahem…” Li Shimin smiled awkwardly. He didn’t expect Li Yin to see through his careful thinking. Li Yin said so clearly that he would give him a car. On the contrary, he felt embarrassed, and said: “Father understands, I won’t let you give it to me for nothing, I will give you this car as a gift, and your mother and concubine must have one for each, right? Why don’t you buy ten cars. My father will buy these ten cars at the normal price.” This year, Li Yin paid more than seven million yuan in taxes to the court, and Li Shimin is now rich and powerful.
Li Shimin carried Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang out, Li Yin complained endlessly, and he had to send two more cars, but. Fortunately, the remaining ten cars are enough to earn this back, and it is not considered a loss. After all, Li Yin does not want to earn Li Shimin’s money. Father, this is fine.” After discussing this matter, Li Shimin was in a good mood. The surrounding ministers all looked envious, and they were all thinking about how to drive Li Shimin’s car.
Solved the big problem in the grassland, and got this magical classic car again. Li Shimin laughed and walked back. Li Yin was about to leave, and immediately surrounded a group of ministers. They didn’t have the opportunity to greet Li Yin just now, but now they seized the opportunity. Happy Chinese New Year, King of Shu. That is when the king of Shu will go to the mansion to sit down.
The sudden enthusiasm of the ministers made Li Yin a little overwhelmed. Some ministers who had been cold to him in the court before also changed their facial expressions at this time. The expression that we are **** friends made Li Yin break out in cold sweat. If the guards hadn’t come to ask Li Yin to have a meal at Baifu Hall, Li Yin really couldn’t escape for a while.
Looking at Li Yin’s leaving figure, all the ministers have their own thoughts. From Li Shimin’s mouth, they have learned that Li Yin’s Yizhou Army has enough power to overthrow the entire Datang. After all, the reason why the Datang Whether or not they can win the war on the grassland is all due to Li Yin, and those generals who have experienced it personally have also brought such news to every family they are in, which makes them have to reevaluate their attitude towards Li Yin question.
“Hey, it seems that the form of the Tang Dynasty is about to change.” Wei Zheng said bluntly, “The rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty was only at the whim of the king of Shu. These ministers must have seen this too!”
Fang Xuanling said: “It’s not just the ministers, the emperor looks at the King of Shu differently. The ministers are all good at observing words and expressions, so why can’t they see it? It is estimated that the emperor is also weighing something.”
“The future throne?” Changsun Wuji said.
“Hush! Keep your voice down!” Fang Xuanling said cautiously, “The King of Shu is so powerful, if someone else ascends the throne in the future, he must choose someone who is also satisfactory to the King of Shu, otherwise, if the King of Shu is not satisfied, wouldn’t it be troublesome? .”
The relationship between Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin, and Empress Changsun is the closest, and he naturally understands the key point. Fang Xuanling’s words are correct. The future emperor is not Li Yin, but the person who will satisfy Li Yin. In this way, Li Chengqian , Li Tai, and Li You were eliminated, because everyone knew that Li Yin was at odds with the three of them, and he also got some news from these people. The prince lost his temper several times in the East Palace, and he probably figured out what happened.
Several people were directly involved in the change of Xuanwumen, and they are very sensitive to the issue of the throne. Wei Zheng frowned and said, “The current crown prince is Li Jiancheng, and Li Yin is the king of Qin. Now the crown prince has no However, the king of Shu has repeatedly made great achievements, just hope that the emperor is not the emperor of the past, otherwise the brother-in-law may start again.”
“Hey, these things are the emperor’s family affairs, we don’t care about them, we don’t want to get involved in any prince’s fight for the throne right now.” Changsun Wuji said, Wei Zheng’s implication is that Li Shimin will abolish the prince when it is time to abolish Prince, don’t be as hesitant as Li Yuan was back then. Although Changsun Wuji is not reconciled to the failure of his lineage, this is the only way to save the lives of Li Chengqian and Li Tai.
The three of them walked outside the Taiji Palace while talking. The three of them thought so, and so did the other ministers. The most obvious change is the current Cui family, which Li Yin can easily defeat. For 400,000 barbarians, it is not easy to kill these so-called nobles. Before, they did not understand the real hidden strength behind Yizhou. Now the Yizhou army only revealed the tip of the iceberg and shocked the whole government. They suddenly understood It turns out that the combat effectiveness of the Yizhou Army is not bragging, but real.
Knowing that Li Yin has arrived in Chang’an, Cui Shao was refreshed and asked Lu to put on the luxurious gown that Cui Yingying sent from Yizhou early on. This time when he came to Tai Chi Palace, Li Yin also came here to greet him. After a while, he also said that he would go to Yizhou for a while, which greatly satisfied Cui Shao’s vanity, and at this time the officials surrounding him were extremely flattering, many of them were officials of the Cui family .
In the past, it was Cui Shao who begged them not to tear the Cui family apart. Now that Li Yin’s crops are growing, and now Li Yin is helping Li Shimin defeat the grassland, even a fool can see the current situation clearly. The throne, then Li Yin is definitely a master who is basically on an equal footing with the future emperor. It is too late for such a king of Shu to fawn on him. Who would dare to offend? The person’s posture finds Cui Shao and asks him to manage the Cui family, but the plan is to get on this line with Li Yin.
Facing them, Cui Shao didn’t forget what happened back then, so he naturally wanted to make things difficult for them for a while, in order to vent his frustration.
Not only the ministers felt this year’s special atmosphere different from previous years, but Li Yin felt even stronger, as if his world was suddenly peaceful, and the people around him were very kind to him. Li Yin was also polite, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai also changed their bad faces in the past, and actually smiled politely at Li Yin, which made Li Yin feel goosebumps all over his body.
Although he also expected that the exposure of the real combat power of the Yizhou Army would have some impact on him, he did not expect that this impact would be a bit beyond his surprise.
